ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION).
Story: Republican vice presidential nominee Gov. Mike Pence and his wife laid flowers at the 9-11 Pentagon Memorial in Arlington, Virginia on Saturday (September 10). The couple visited the site one day before the 15th anniversary of the attack that killed 184 people at the Pentagon, and more than 2000 others in New York and Pennsylvania.
Pence's visit comes as his running mate, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump are doing better in the polls. The latest Reuters-Ipsos poll showed Trump with 40 percent support vs 39 percent for Clinton, effectively ending Clinton's bump up in the polls after the Democratic nominating convention. Other polls showed Clinton's lead had shrunk.
Clinton remained in a strong position to win the White House race, but Trump and his team cited his growing strength in opinion polls nationally and in several states where the election is likely to be decided to argue that his message is breaking through to voters.
